Answer:

b. Mitochondrial respiration

Explanation:

Mitochondrial respiration of plants involves the participation of two major electron transport routes:

1. Cytochrome c oxidase route: cyanide sensitive and coupled to three energy conservation sites.

2. Cyanide-insensitive alternative route: involves alternative oxidase (AOX), branches off the cytochrome oxidase route into the ubiquinone pool, with no energy conservation thereafter as AOX is able to directly oxidize ubiquinol and reduce oxygen to water.

Regardless of the route followed, mitochondrial breathing is a long and complex process. However, it is through this breath that at a given moment electrons are passed to oxygen through a carrier channel in the inner mitochondrial membrane.  This happens when cytochromes to and some molecules that have a heme group (with an iron atom) and are linked to a transmembrane protein that connects the matrix to the mitochondrial intermembrane space and have two copper atoms that allow the transport of electrons to the final acceptor, oxygen (O2).

The answer would be C as it can be directly tested experimentally and observed that bacteria adapted to become drug resistant and the natural selection of drug resistant bacteria to survive and continue proliferating, thus being direct evidence of evolution

Mitochondria important for the cell that can't survive without it but blood cell is an exception. Blood is a tissue in animals so RBCs are animal cells and don't have mitochondria
